A young humanoid alien who gets stranded on earth hooks up with a grizzled old sheriff in a western town and tries to help him solve a tough case, but the sheriff doesn't want any help from a "kid."
The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid is a 1979 Italian children's comedy film starring Bud Spencer and child actor Cary Guffey. It was followed by a sequel in 1980, Everything Happens to Me. The film's theme song "Sheriff", written and performed, like the rest of the soundtrack, by Guido & Maurizio De Angelis, was a local airplay hit in the same year.
